Frank Abagnale thinks the airline pilot hat can also be a test of authenticity.
He should know. In the 1960s, Abagnale gained notoriety for forging more than $2 million in bad checks and for adopting a variety of fake identities, including a doctor, a lawyer and, most famously, a Pan American World Airways pilot. Abagnale, whose exploits were depicted in the movie Catch Me If You Can, is now a fraud prevention consultant for corporations and the FBI and explained, via e-mail, why he thinks pilots should keep their hats:
The emblems on their hats, as well as their wings, are actually two of the most difficult things for someone to obtain ... removing the requirement of the hat makes it one step easier to assume the role of a pilot.

Why hasn't anyone thought of the obvious solution? May 13 is promoted on Delta Net as "Take your kids to work day." There is no reason the Cat Ranchers should be excluded from participation.
The upshot is since the "children" will gorge themselves on all the cousins of Speedy Gonzales and Slowpoke Rodriquez, there will be more food left over for pilots and perhaps the FA's can cut down on a couple of the mobile refrigerators they carry to feed fluffball his normal diet of Shrimp, Steak and Poached Salmon.

Section 14. Subject to Section 14 D. 1. b. and c., a pilot who commences a medical leave of absence on or after June 1, 2006 will have his full pay sick leave hours restored when he returns from disability, if he makes a written request to his Chief Pilot within 30 days of his return to active payroll status. A pilot may use this provision once every four sick leave years (e.g., a pilot who requested and was granted this restoration to be effective on June 1, 2007 may be granted another restoration due to a subsequent return from disability not earlier than June 1, 2011).
